here’s a review of
’The Romance is Over’
by the Sleazy Listeners out on squirrelgirl
ok here’s an excerpt by
RAF + VINCE of VICE magazine in this month’s ’nature’ issue.
One of the most disturbing albums I’ve heard in a while has got to be the latest release on
Squirrelgirl records, The Romance Is Over, by the twisted duo of
Norway’s Lasse Marhaug and Canada’s Zev Asher, a.k.a. The Sleazy Listeners.
The looped and chopped swingin’ lounge samples combined with unholy sound manipulations
and the creepiest crooner you ever heard (Asher) give the album a bad-trip David Lynch quality.
Sheens of noise are shattered and scrambled over the top, creating a layer of frantic urgency,
while jazz-noir samples undulate in pitch, giving a very uneasy ebb and flow to the album
that’s sort of like watching your best friend eat out your ex.
The fifth track, “Foot to Mouth,”
transcends madness into the sublime as the grand organ progressions and choirs
are bit-granulated progressively into the stratosphere.
they also review
Schlammpeitziger (a.k.a. Jo Zimmerman)
Trapist (Martin Siewart, Martin Brandlmayr, and Joe Williamson)
Apparat etc
http://www.viceland.com/issues/v10n11/htdocs/ei.php
Kurt Nilsen loves this album too.
2 squirrelgirl artists (Zev ’Roughage’ Asher and Jen ’[sic]’ Morris)
will have their works screened the
video/short and experimental film/photography festival
in Bitola, Macedonia.

Pivophone by Jen Morris & Michael Egger (world premiere)
Thursday, January 17, 2019 at 8 PM
Cinema Bellevaux, Route Aloys-Fauquez 4, 1018 Lausanne Vaud, Suisse
À faire se retourner Edison dans sa tombe, voici en première mondiale le pivophone, dont la performance sera retransmise en direct sur plus de 20 radios publiques européennes, dans le cadre du Art’s Birthday organisé à Lausanne par Espace 2 au Cinema Bellevaux.
Tournant dans la tête de Jen Morris depuis des lustres et réalisée avec Micheal Egger, cette nouvelle machine pourrait s’inscrire comme la cerise sur le gâteau d’une histoire des machines à bruits. Des Intonarumori futuristes aux tubes robotiques des frères Decoster, c’est toute une généalogie glorifiant la virilité agressive, la force, le pouvoir, l’industrie et la guerre que révèle le pivophone. Le pivophone met en doute ce qui jusqu’à son arrivée faisait autorité dans les arts du son. Alors, s’agit-il d’écouter des pives comme John Cage désirait entendre l’âme des cendriers ? Non, mais on se rapproche. Et oui il faut se rapprocher. On est dans l’art de la miniature. Miniature d’un gros show télévisé où les pop stars sont des pives. Miniature d’une scène faite miroir. Miniature d’une patinoire d’Holidays on Ice, où les danseurs-hockeyeuses sont finalement grandeur nature. Alors déjà assité à un ballet de pives majestueuses sous speed ? Déjà écouté le fracas d’une pive contre une autre ?
Jen Morris est une artiste sonore de performances électroniques, radicales et troublantes. De renommée internationale sous le pseudo [sic], Morris communique rarement avec l’espèce humaine. Mais lorsqu’elle le fait, à travers, aussi, la vidéo, l’installation, la bande son de films et son label Squirrelgirl, c’est frontal et désarçonnant. Automatic word wrap
http://squirrelgirl.com/releases/SIC/
Michael Egger est un artiste vidéo, bricoleur-inventeur, programmeur, musicien et pédagogue.
